Re: What Bourbon did you purchase today...Fall 2009

Even though it isn't fall until next week, it's close enough to participate in this thread (grin).

I received a shipment today with a bottle of Elijah Craig 18yo bottled in 1990, nestled in with two bottles of Midleton Irish and a bottle of Jameson's Limited Reserve 18yo. I also picked up a bottle of Glenrothes 1975 30yo scotch.

I plan to round out my VanWinkles this weekend and stop spending on Irish Whisky and Scotch for awhile (grin).

Re: What Bourbon did you purchase today...Fall 2009

After going close to 2 months without making a purchase (edit to correct: I did buy a few scotch bottles on sale 2 weeks ago, but they don't count in a bourbon thread <G>), I have lapsed back into my buying ways again. I picked up a bottle of the Jefferson Presidential Select this weekend (and after tasting it tonight will be putting in an order for a few more bottles) and today when stopping by the local store just to talk with the spirits guy about how he liked the U2 concert (he went Saturday, we went Sunday) I noticed that he had the new BTEC on the shelf so I had to buy a set. Probably will not be my last bottle this week since I'm sure a few new bottles will find their way home during KBF.

I like Fall better then summer so I am posting here.
Picked up a ETL as a back up and a bottle of OGD BIB as a replacement and meant to grab a bottle of Fighting Cock because it had been a while but when I got to the counter I had a bottle of Charter 101 in my hand so I went with that.

Always do sober what you said you’d do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.

Re: What Bourbon did you purchase today...Fall 2009

Silly me, fall is so much better than summer.

Well it seems my spot with all the Weller Centennial was discovered by someone, but I did manage to grab one more bottle, seem to be all gone now.
They are trying to order me a certain beer this week, so when I stop in again I'll check and see if they've filled the void in their bourbon isle with anything.
